Not positive pressure, but vacuum. The crankcase is almost always supposed to be under vacuum for proper blowby evacuation. The only time it isn't under vacuum is when the manifold isn't under vacuum (WOT if you're N/A; 0psi+ boost if you're turbocharged).

If the dipstick is popping out, that means the crankcase is being pressurized somehow. Pinching the dipstick tube, or otherwise securing the dipstick is just a bandaid. You need to get to the bottom of your problem, and find out why the pressure is being released into the crankcase.

Are you sure the PCV valve is good? Why not post a simple diagram of your PCV setup (catchcan included) so we know what's going on.
